dmb,

I consider your intellectual presentation surely be on the low side of the intellectual continuum.  Your rhetoric is far to flat and rigid to appeal to someone like me, and it seems way too, well, desperate and self serving of your attachment to William James.

Within the MoQ, these patterns are morally categorized into a four-level, evolutionary, hierarchical structure:  inorganic, biological, social and intellectual. Static quality exists in stable patterns relative to other patterns:  patterns depend upon ( exist relative to) innumerable causes and conditions (patterns), depend upon (exist relative to) parts and the collection of parts (patterns), depend upon (exist relative to) conceptual designation (patterns). Patterns have no independent, inherent existence.  Further, these patterns pragmatically exist relative to an individual's static pattern of life history.
